Editor's note: An earlier version of this story incorrectly implied that States had plead guilty and was responsible for the entire amount of allegedly missing funds. That is not accurate.  According to Pennsylvania law, misapplication of entrusted property is a misdemeanor of the first degree if the amount in question is greater than $50 and a misdemeanor of the second degree if the amount is question is less. 21 News is working to get more information on what led to the dismissal of most of the charges. 

 

The former CEO of the YMCA in Hermitage has plead no contest and was found guilty of one misdemeanor count of misapplication of entrusted property. 

42-year-old Robert States is scheduled to be sentenced February 27.

States had originally been accused of spending almost $100,000 worth of YMCA revenue in unauthorized transactions accumulated through two separate YMCA business credit cards, as well as using the cards to obtain cash that was used to meet payroll at the YMCA. 

The original complaint also accused States of writing bad checks to the Hermitage Little League Association. 

That complaint tallied $500,000 in allegedly stolen funds, however all charges were dismissed with the exception of the misdemeanor theft.
